About this listen
Apocalypse: Disorder and chaos ravage London when thousands are contaminated by the accidental discharge of an experimental bioweapon. The disease robs its hosts of rational thought, giving them a singular desire - find more living flesh to infect.
Aftermath: Peter, alone by choice and oddly thriving, finds himself suddenly responsible for the life of someone other than himself. Elsewhere, other survivors stake their own claims to land and resources, but the inexplicable swarms of undead threaten to gather and dissipate constantly.
Abandoned: The virus spreads to every corner of the country while the combined forces of the naval fleet set sail for deeper waters and leave the UK to its fate. The few groups that remain are separated after a fateful battle for England, left to their own devices.
Adversity: As if flesh-hungry zombies weren't enough, a harsh winter strikes.
Adaptation: The apocalypse continues in the penultimate chapter of the Toy Soldiers series. Will anybody make it out alive?
Annihilation: Fleeing the seemingly unstoppable enemy, the survivors pin their hopes on a final attempt for freedom, but that means they must turn their backs on their home forever.

Highly Commended
If you liked the Mountain Man series narrated by the superlative RC Bray then you are in for a real treat!
I searched for something suitable as a replacement read as I had listened to the whole series and saved this book in my library for a few months.
Although narrated by the sublime John Lee I just couldn’t give it a start - what a wasted few months they were, from the starting chapter it takes you and quite simply listened to it with every bit of free time available.
With a slightly different slant - with a more militarily base and with less visceral gore than MM it is nonetheless just as powerfully written by the excellent Devon C Ford if not better in detail.
I commend this series wholeheartedly to you the listener…

The Read Undead
This is an exceptionally good book! It transports you into the action of a fast paced story with great characterisations portraying the bleakness of a world lost to pandemic disease and cannibalism. I picked this up as it was on offer for free expecting the usual tropes in tales of this type. It offers more humanity than you would predict when dealing with the atavism of the human condition and yet keeps the narrative moving at pace. It is reminiscent of most other zombie apocalypse type literature and film and yet does offer other perspectives on the genre and was infinitely enhanced by John Lee’s performance. It was an enjoyable listen and I will definitely seek out other titles by this author.

Brilliant
An absolutely fabulous series. The story is not only about the zombies, but also the characters. These are extremely well written and you can really get behind them (whether they're good or bad ones!). Setting this story in the 80's also gives it a real twist, so rather than having an informed, connected world, the characters deal with older traditional media sources, lack of instant communication and so on. Love the series!

good storyline that develops steadily.
engaging characters and a progressing storyline that is non repetitive. Likes the use of heavily stylised officer upperclassness a bit too much but aside from that it's great

Excellent series
Excellent characters and terrifying monsters, I was completely immersed in the Toy Soldiers world. I hope there’ll be a follow up series.

Another great Devon C Ford series.
Well written, gritty, funny in places. Characters personalities grip you and have you engaged in them. Highly recommended.

Thoroughly engaged from start to finish
If you like the apocalypse genre then this series is a must read
Great characters that you can track right through the series or for as long as they last.
Narration is spot on with no attempt to over dramatise voices but with the ability to introduce the appropriate tensions when required.

UK zombie apocalypse
Great read, thoroughly believable. Enjoyed the very British feel of it, story lines were good. An excellent box set, meaty, plenty to get your teeth into. Highly recommend

Thoroughly enjoyable
makes a change for a zombie novel to be set in the UK, but just a shame the US military had to save the day again!
Good story & well written.
